The Benefits of Using Self-drilling Screws

The benefits of self-drilling screws

In the world of construction, any product that can increase the speed of a job without sacrificing quality represents a step forward in innovation. Self-drilling screws, as the name suggests, tap their own precise thread when drilled into a range of materials including metal, wood and plastic.

The design can greatly reduce the preparation time of a job by eliminating the need for pre-drilling or washers – which in turn also creates less mess. Because of the precise thread created by the screw itself, self-drilling screws are also the product of choice for items that are required to be assembled and dissembled; such as air conditioning units, as the screws will follow the same thread each time, ensuring a strong and consistent bond.

Self-drilling screws come in a wide range of bespoke forms to suit the needs of the job in-hand, so when undertaking your next construction project consider the benefits of this type of screw:

  • Reduced preparation – no need for pre-drillings or fixings
  • Anti-corrosion – stainless steel and heat treated range available
  • Self-tapping – screws cut their own thread
  • Reduced mess – no mess from pre-drilling
  • Durability – weather resistant and numerous reapplications
  • Improved efficiency – minimal preparation needed
  • Consistent performance on a range of materials – see our extensive selection designed specifically for trade requirements
